We, The Open Door, Inc., have the honor and privilege of being funded by AIDS United's Retention in Care Initiative, supported by MAC AIDS Fund. The Open Door, Inc. is a supportive housing program and an innovative, cost-effective, and replicable approach to engaging and retaining highly marginalized populations in HIV-related care.

Last month in New Orleans, LA, AIDS United, NO/AIDS Task Force and Positive Women’s Network-USA collaborated on a National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day program. There were 14 women and six NATF staff members present. After dining on chicken marsala, spring mix, green beans, Au gratin potatoes and Bread Pudding for dessert, participants watched the movie, Life Support starring Queen Latifah and Gloria Reuben; there was not a dry eye in the house at the end of the movie.
